About Notebird

Notebird is a pastoral care application designed for churches, nonprofits, and ministries seeking to enhance their care efforts. The app offers a centralized location for storing conversation notes, assigning follow-ups, and monitoring significant life events for each individual.

Additionally, the app enables users to generate Care Reports for an overview of pastoral care activities. The Milestones Feed displays upcoming birthdays, anniversaries, and other important dates to help users stay informed about significant occasions.

Notebird also includes a Tasks feature, which assigns follow-ups to team members, ensuring that no one is overlooked. This application assists clergy and ministry teams in staying organized, prepared, and coordinated in their pastoral care efforts. By storing care interactions, tracking milestones, and facilitating follow-ups, Notebird aims to bring efficiency and organization to churches and ministries of various sizes.

    Pros:
    Notebird helps us manage and coordinate pastoral care for our congregation among the staff, reducing repetition and being clear about needs/care we can provide.
    Cons:
    We wish it synced with our church database, ACS/Realm

    Reasons for switching to Notebird

    We needed something that provided more confidentiality for those in pastoral leadership.

    Notebird helps us keep track of our growing congregation

    --It has been very helpful for our team to have a "feed" of the contacts/visits we have done...it also is very helpful to have milestones brought to our attention each day. --We also like having a "permanent" file on people where we can check back on our visitation history, etc

    Pros:
    I like: --Ease of adding an update --The speed/responsiveness of it --That it's basic but customizable
    Cons:
    --The cost, the individual user monthly charge makes it cost prohibitive for start up and small ministries that need it most --No push notifications...this is a critical feature that is missing

    Reasons for choosing Notebird

    I switched to Notebird for pastoral care over our CHMS (breeze) because the data is visible on the surface rather than drilling down in 4 layers.

    Pros:
    It's so easy in Notebird to keep a running history of my pastoral care of each church member to pull up for future reference. The milestone reminders are also a helpful feature. It's also very easy to group members and customize your update subject fields.
    Cons:
    Synching Notebird with our church management software was a bit of a trick, but Notebird's customer service was remarkably responsive and got everything running smoothly in short order.
